It's peak foliage somewhere

Posted by Kimberly Sherman September 24, 2009 05:43 PM

nekingdom.jpgIndeed it is - in the Northeast Kingdom of course. That's exactly why their Fall Foliage Fest always precedes others - it runs this weekend from Sept. 27-Oct. 3. Seven northern Vermont villages invite visitors to head upstream to celebrate rural life against a spectacular backdrop of orange, red and yellow leaves. Seven unique festivals take place in seven towns over seven different days. The villages of St. Johnsbury, Walden, Cabot, Plainfield, Peacham, Barnet and Groton each host the festival for a day, and in that order. For more information, visit online.
